Chapter 65
"Nakapagdesisyon ka na ba kung saan ka mag-aaral ng college?"
Napabuntong-hininga ako sa tanong ni Helen. Nakaupo kami ngayon sa bleachers ng open gym at kaming lima lang ang narito. Nanonood kami ng praktis ng basketball nina Dom, Lowell at iba pang manlalaro para sa Sports Fest ngayong Miyerkules."Hindi ko pa nga alam," pagtatapat ko at sabay inilapag ang plastic envelope na ang nilalaman ay mga importanteng papel ko at card. "I'm trying to reconsider PSU and SAC, but I do think WeSaS is the preferable choice.""Doon ka nalang sa Aklan State University, Slaine. Para magkasama tayo! Pwede ka namang maka-avail ng scholarship mula kay Mayor.""Ikaw Dani, saan ka mag-aaral?" Lumingon si Crezst sa kaniya."Luluwas na kasi kami ng Manila ngayong darating na May at hindi ko pa alam kung saan ako mag-aaral. Siguro sa UP Diliman, basta kung anong university lang ang malapit sa lugar namin doon."I heaved a sigh after realizing things.Kaugnay na kabanata

"May kailangan ka pa?" Diretsahan kong tanong."Uhm nothing..." He spoke lowly. "Just wanna invite to eat something outside the campus."Pinasadahan ko siya ng tingin. Rafus is wearing a basketball jersey and his hair is a bit damp of sweats. Nakasukbit sa kanang balikat niya ang bag. Natigilan ako sa hydro flask na nakalagay sa bulsa ng bag niya... iyon ang iniregalo ko sa kaniya noong Christmas party... Ang araw kung saan ako nag-umpisang umasa sa kaniya dahil sa pagganti niya sa yakap ko.Napaiwas ako ng tingin at tumikhim. "I have work to do so I can't accept your invitation.""Just for twenty minutes... no, fifteen minutes will do. Can you spare me some of your time?" His voice fills with expectancy and eyes sparkles in plea."With that clothes?" I hesitatingly asked him but the moment I saw him smirked, probably giving my words a different meaning, I rolled my eyes at him. "Eat something with yourself! You're not a kid anymore so yo

Nagpatuloy ang laro hanggang sa natapos ang unang quarter at lamang ang team namin. Napalingon ako kay Crezst nang bahagya niya akong siniko ng mahina. May ininguso siya dahilan para mapatingin ako roon."She wants the crowd to notice her," she flatly uttered.I saw Mejia handing a towel to Lowell. She's wearing a tank top and denim skirt, her hair is straight and shiny behind her back. "Hindi naman siguro," I lowly said. Giving a little benefit of the doubt."I'm sure, she will nag Lowell... na makipagbalikan sa kaniya. Knowing that Mejia, she's thirsty for fame and Lowell's famous, so she wants to leech with him to fill her cup."Natahimik ako sa sinabi ni Crezst at napatingin muli sa baba. It seems that Lowell is forcing himself to accept the towel. Maybe, he didn't expect it to happen. It's been months since I last saw them talking to each other. I'm not updated in Lowell's activities so I'm not certain of the real score between him

I really want to curse myself and bash my head to the wall! After those words he said that day, my mind was completely baffled!I just don't know what to do anymore. If shutting those shivering feelings effective or just worsen the circumstances! I feel that his words has magic and keeps enchanting me day by day! I hate this! It feels like my old vulnerable self is resurrecting!My confusion intensified when I've got to see him play. It was two days after the confrontation between us. I tried hard to not look at him on the game but every time I turned to his direction, I always met his intense eyes and lips which eventually crept into a smirk.Palaging iyon ang laging ganap kapag pinipinilit ako nina Jangkit na manood ng laro nila. Well, I couldn't deny the fact that I'm impress with his skill in basketball. He's in good team with good schemes, no wonder the gap between their team to others are understandable."Dali na, Slaine. Kailangan

That basketball match is the last time I've encounter with Rafus. May came, which is his birth month, I became very busy in processing my papers for college registration and entrance examination that I couldn't get to greet him a happy birthday on his day.I couldn't believe I'm all alone now. I still can't accept it. Umalis na ng Antique ang mga kaibigan ko kamakailan para asikasuhin ang mga papel at para kumuha ng entrance exam sa unibersidad na papasukan nila.It sucks to say good bye but I have to accept it. In order to grow, I have to depend no one but myself. I will either succeed or try another chance to prove myself.I've come to decide to stay here in WeSaS, it's convenient. Bakit pa ako lalayo kung maayos at advantageous namang mag-aral dito? I admit that it isn't easy to adjust in my first year. Nasanay ako na kasama ko ang barkada kaya medyo nakakapanibago. My college life is peaceful, I gain some new friends but it's incomparable with my six b

I spent my vacant time in secluded and quiet place at the back of our campus. There's a tree here and an old stone bench. I settled myself and place my bag beside me."What now?" I asked to myself while staring from away.Reflecting on what just happened yesterday, it only causes my heart to feel a heavy burden. I guess I'll just get concern for Shey in a low-key way."Mind if I sit here beside you?"Napanganga ako at hindi agad nakabawi. Sinamantala niya ang pagkakataon na iyon para makaupo sa tabi ko. He glanced at me and a small smile made its way on his lips."Rafus..." I barely uttered his name, my eyes were pinned on his. "What are you doing here? Don't you have class?"He remained looking at me and I almost jolted when his finger trailed my hair that covers my face and putted it behind my ear."I was just walking around then I saw you here. I don't have class right now, maybe after one or two hours I'll have one."

What Helen said shocked my whole sanity. I didn't get to sleep well last night because of anxiousness that she might do something to herself.Basing her voice and her words, I feel like she's depressed and frustrated. Knowing her parents, they aren't likely to tolerate what had happened to their precious daughter. Only me and Crezst knew about this and I couldn't imagine what will happen once her parents finds out that she's pregnant.Kung malapit lang siguro ako sa kaniya ay pwede ko agad siyang daluhan at aluin, pero ilang kilometro ang layo ko at hindi naman ako basta bastang makaalis dahil may mga responsibilidad ako sa paaralan, sa trabaho, at sa bahay."I've been calling you several times last night, who did you talked to?" Natauhan ako nang maamoy ang pamilyar na pabango na minsang ko nang nakaadikan. Napaangat ako ng tingin at ang iritado na Rafus ang nakasalubong ko."What's with that reaction? And why do you care if I'm talking to someone over the phone?" I raised my voice

He's wearing a plain gray shirt and his hands were both on the pocket of his black jeans. Hair's a little push back and he's languidly walking towards our direction with a smirk plastered on his face. He freakishly looks like a model in a runway show."Hey..." With his low tone voice.I blinked twice and even Helen seems to be starstrucked by him. The moment I regained my consciousness, I surveyed Rojas."Hi," I greeted back. "What can we help you?""Actually... I'm here to fetch you." He licked his lips then glanced at Helen for a moment. My jaw drop and he take advantage of my shock to swiftly get the bag from me. "I'll take this now, hmm.""Teka..." Pigil ko sa kaniya pero nakapagpaalam na siya kay Helen at nagsimula nang maglakad papunta sa sasakyan niya.Akma kong susundan si Rojas pero agad akong hinawakan ni Helen sa braso para pigilan ako. May malisya akong tinignan ni Helen at dumako din ang tingin niya kay Rojas."Kayo?" Seryosong tanong niya.Napangiti ako at umiling. "Hind

We waited for almost fifteen minutes before our turn. He lowered the driver's window. The staff greeted us merrily then handed Rafus the menu."What do you want?" Bumaling siya sa akin."Basta ako ang magbabayad?"Hindi siya sumagot sa akin at ibinalik ang tingin sa menu saka dumukwang papalapit sa bintana para sabihin ang order."That much?" I gasped yet he just looked at me with that usual expression, calm.Pasimple kong tinignan ang pera sa wallet ko. Kinuha ko mula roon ang limang daan at nang iabot ko sa kaniya ay namilog ang mata ko dahil nakaabot na siya ng dalawang libo sa staff."Keep it," he simply said."But-"Pinutol siya ako sa pamamagitan ng pag-abot sa akin ng isang bucket ng fried chicken. Wala akong nagawa kundi ang kunin iyon sa kaniya at tumahimik."Just keep your money for you future expenses. You don't have to spend when you're with me, don't worry I won't charge you with anything." He sensibly said right after we received all the foods he ordered.Kinuha niya ang
